  • ObjectArmchairs
  • Period1900 - 1920
  • StyleLouis XVI
  • MaterialBeech, Upholstery Fabric
  • ColourOff-White
  • MotifsFluted legs, Rosette carvings, Straight backrest, Piped upholstery
  • SizeH 87 cm (34 in) x W 55 cm (22 in) x D 55 cm (22 in)

The Louis XVI style is characterised by a return to classical symmetry, featuring straight lines, fluted legs, and neoclassical geometric motifs, moving away from the curved exuberance of the preceding Rococo period.

These frames were traditionally crafted from solid hardwoods such as beech, oak, or walnut, hand-carved and finished with gesso, paint, or gilding, then traditionally upholstered using horsehair and webbed suspension.

Authentication involves examining the joinery for hand-cut mortise and tenon joints, inspecting the wood for age-related patina and tool marks, and checking the upholstery substructure for traditional stuffing materials.

These chairs work well as accent pieces in contemporary living spaces, pairing classical silhouettes with neutral upholstery to create a balanced contrast against minimalist architecture.

Preservation requires keeping the pieces away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood cracking and fabric fading, and dusting the frames regularly with a dry, soft cloth.
